A beautifully and sensitively told story, WAITING FOR ANYA relates an important chapter in world history. The more that stories like this one are told the better we are as a society for it. Adapted for the big screen by writer/director Ben Cookson and co-writer Toby Torlesse from the young adult novel by Michael Morpurgo, author of “The War Horse”, WAITING FOR ANYA opens the eyes of a new generation to little known history of the quiet heroes of World War II with a story of French villagers who rescued Jewish children and smuggled them over the Pyrenees mountains into Spain, saving them from the Nazis. All star cast with French (Reno) German (Kretschmann) and U.S. Cast (Huston and Schnapp) Reminiscent of Au Revoir Les Enfants.
